Most happy/"anti- depressant" TGA strain?

Hey guys,

I'll be soon ordering some seed and as usual i'm getting lost in the TGA menu.

I've always focused in the flavor aspect so far and thought: i'd try to pick a strain based on the medecinal properties for once.

Now when reading this: "High type- Strong and hard hitting with fast onset of laughter. Reminds me of some of the first times I got high when I was younger." (AOS) i thought this is exactly what i want!!!

I thought Jack the ripper profile would be behind the "happy effect" as Pandora Box is also described as : "up, speedy, very shit eating grin and smiling like a Cheshire cat like high. Pandora's Box is a bit smoother than JTR and has a different feel in the head less haze influence." But as stated Jack the ripper woul tend to be more of a Sativa-ish Hazey type of high that isnt really what you want to smoke "all-day".

If anyone can confirm the "happy" side of AOS or could share his experience with an other strain that has that effect.

Thanks in advance, peace!

I've smoked a lot of JTR and its not the strain I'd smoke all day, I smoke it when I wanna get wasted but not too couch locked, its one of my fav strains.

Over past few months I've recently stopped my Meds, they were basically my happy pills but usually knock people on their ass but have opposite effect to me, so I may not be the best judge. The best ive used so far have been jillybean, O. Haze, and my haze cross which is probably similar to a haze leaning Skunk Haze. She's still growing but I've harvested two branches so far and they both have about 30% cloudy and rest clear, the haze cross is by far the best med for my daytime smoke I've found so far so I'm thinking I need sativas, the jilybean worked too but I never kept a clone. But when I smoke this haze i feel like I'm on my Meds and I can smoke the shit constantly too, infact I've found the more I smoke the better I feel ;p

So for me sativa Dom strains work best, but I reckon its trial and error as everyone's different, best advice I can give is that the more I smoke the better I feel, so smoke more ;p

JillyBean is renowned for her anti-depressant qualities. Plus shes a big yielder and has amazing flavor.

I'll second Oriah about Jilly, it's truly something special. The only drawback I find with Jilly is that it tastes so good I keep wanting more and it eventually gets me to the point where I get up off the couch and get vertigo for a few secs.

I have a vortex cut that makes you forget your depressed, it makes you forget everything,lol

Cheers guys noted

Bob: The Hazes i like but they tend to be kind of cloudy when you smoke them all day. Kaboom for example is really nice, but you might find yourself wandering about awesome shit when smoking to much of it. It aint really like the "wtf is going on haze overdose" type of thing, but almost like a "i've smoked too much charas" type of high. You're happy but in a much more introspective fashion

I'll do some reading on jillybean right now.

Peace!

Chuck: Just read your comment, my kaboom is the same, i more looking for a "mellow" hybrid. Now when i say mellow dont understand me as i want a couch lock kush, but i remember smoking weeds back in the days that would put me in a very happy, smily, social mood, this is the type of high i'd like to get for the day time smoke

Hehe ^^

i reckon every strain is a anti depressant, just depends wether u wanna be be fucked up all day happy on a sofa or out and about.

but whatever it is, smoke more, that will always help!

The "this shit taste to good" is a constant with me haha, i'm growing for the taste before everything else, but smoking either heavy sativa or heavy indica non stop puts you in "stange" places sometimes haha. That's why i'm looking for such a smoke that keeps me in that "enlightened" mood

Yeah "antidepressant" doesnt seem the best word to describe it, the description of AOS though was really on point. I can smoke all day an be efficient at doing pretty much everything but some strains definetely open you up to discussion while other act like tiny black hole in your brain that turns everything in. Each strains act differently and as i'm learning more and more about cannabis i thought i might try to take that getting high thing seriously.

edit:

Jillybean "Very good mood elevator and general euphoria are experienced while high on this cross." Love it, i'll get a 5 pack!

Peace!

All joke aside, learning the difference between sativa and indica changed my amsterdam trip from being a zombie smoking indica a 9am to enjoying full days of sativa in the morning and hashish at night. I'll try to select my phenos based on their taste but also will be more dilligent to study the slight differences in "high". Find the right stuff for me

Peace

Not a TGA strain, but a good greencrack does that.

I'm in europe so getting my hands on clones is out of the way.

I know Bodhi has some green crack hybrid, i'll be looking into his genetic at some point for sure, thanks for the imput though!

Peace!

FWIW green crack gives me anxiety almost every time

good call on the Jillybean, Pennywise is amazing for depression/anxiety

My lemon Space Bomb pheno is a good happy strain, uplifting buzz and pretty crystal clear high, plus the country-time lemonade taste always makes me smile

Avoid sickmeds green crack if anyone decides to go with it....well, thinking bout it that's maybe a bit harsh, it was beautiful purple bud (which makes me suspicious, never heard of purple green crack) and tasted of grapes and haze and was a real nice smoke, but the plant was a bitch to grow, you can't train her at all as she has stems like celery and snap under the slightest pressure and yielded like a oz off a 2 month veg!

infact the smoke really did help with raising my moods, just a shame there's none left, after 4 months growing her she lasted not even a week

I grew and am smoking Jillybean for the gentle, uplifting, social high. Everyone I've given samples to has agreed that it's excellent for that. I'm going to grow several other TGA strains, too, for the same properties, though I think they'll be stronger, like Pandora's Box and Jack's Cleaner II. I'm also going to grow Pennywise for anti-depressent/anti-anxiety with some additional pain relief because of the Harlequin. Jillybean is very gentle and warm.

Thanks man, i'm getting a 5 pack of Jillybean based on the good feedback you guys gave me on the strain. Gotta love the weed nerd community

@TBob: I hear you man. One of the reason i've switched to bigger plant is to have some bud i can actually cure for a couple of month

Peace!

Vortex does damn good 4 me...strait sativa it makes me feel good and gets you high slight trippiness at times and no tolerance build up either.

I didnt get the happy jilly bean pheno but got 2 of the most amazing tasting and smellin strains ive ever had the pleasure to smoke. I mean it coats your mouth and nose with its smell and taste and everywhere you go after you blaze it smells amazing...i mean it makes the entire world smell good and taste too. Not as potent as the vortex in any way but the buzz has nice personality.

I like vortex!

I'll second this as well. Jilly was probably the "happiest" strain I've ever had in my stable.... great smell, taste, buzz, and bag appeal..... and it really does yield well. It's also pretty damn easy to clone and grow.

Sounds like a winner to me

I'll be ordering a 5 pack on my next order, thanks to all of you

Peace!
